Apparently

it's conservation week!

The middle school had talks about Reduce, Reuse and Recycle last week. Cool. I saw some 'desk tidy's' being created - by reusing some tins and boxes... interested to see lots of purchased embellies for these & they were stored in little plastic bags. hmmm. I wonder if something could be created that reuses everything on it except the adhesive perhaps?
